ALARANIA

The quiet little village of Avondale, a suburb
birmingham, has first class sensation today.
Three months ago handsome young man of
pleasant address located in the village. He
gave his name as Charles Winningham, and
claimed Texas as his home. He made many
friends and in a brief time won the hand and
heart of the village belle, Miss Ellen Dobbs.
They were married October oath, and in
few weeks the happy bridegroom began receiv-
ing long letters from Texas, which were
signed "your loving wife" One of the letters
fell into the hands Of the male relatives Of the
Avondale bride, who very promptly investi-
gated the matter. They soon learned that
the charming Charles Winningham was
Robert Willingham, who has two wives in
Georgia and one in Texas, in addition
to Mrs. Willingham number four. Two years
ago Willingham was arrested in Atlanta for
bigamy, and released on 81 900 bond, pending
trial. He jumped his bond and went to Texas,
where he soon married again. In a short time
he left wife number three, and came to Avon
dale and married Miss Dobbs. He was arrested
this afternoon on q charge of bigamy, and will
be tried tomorrow, if he escapes the venge-
ance of his last wife's friends and relatives,
who are terribly excited over the astounding
developments.

To the Editor of the Republic:

attack upon the union labor nominees for
governor and llieutenant governor II Is
unnecessary to make any defense for the
former, as the charges are unfounded as
is well known by all workingmen. except
the blind partisan, who still clutch the
coat-tail of the old corpse. and who. unlike
the .intellec;ual' Seitz. have not yet ad-
yanced to that intellectual plane now en-
joyed by him. and admired by ali good c;i-
zens and progressive men of today.
This assault upon me is we'll under

sion of the Ohio State Trades Assembly;
we would not deign TO notice it-save to
make known the real motives.
At TAT time we took occasion to de
nouuce Connolly's Incorporate life. in con
nertion with the publication Of the .'Tni0n-
ist, which was at that time the official Or
gan of the trades assembly.
We believe we were justified at that time.
and simply reiterate what we then said:
That the official organ should not be is

conduct in this and other cities. If known

very materially to his standing as editor

sistant commissioner of the bureau of labor.
No, Mr.. Connolly. goa cannot U0te tor
Mr.. Seitz. nor for me. Your faint concep-

today won't admit of it. Hide-bound To
your party we md you today. As in the
